Very helpful member
We had our antigen tests this morning for early flight tomorrow but we were in and out in 15mins with a negative test certificate in our hands so I think you would be ok on the day.
No rule against on the day, test to be taken within the last 72hrs of your arrival in the uk.

For such a short stay, you may actually find that most places are fully booked.
Apparently you can queue at the Imed centre and take a test there, but that to me would be wasting valuable time with the family.
You can order a test from the Co-op chemists and bring it with you. Costs £25 you send a photo of your test result and they then issue a fit to fly certificate. That sounds like a better option.

Hi Lynn
That’s really helpful. I’d not heard of that so definitely something I will be using, should I ever get back to Spain 😉 Do you happen to know the turnaround on getting the results? 🤪🥂

On another post someone said within 30 minutes as long as you post photo within normal working hours. Officially it’s within 24 hours.
